I have an old physical server that I would like to make virtual. The issue is that it has some old software that has a disk formatted in RAW that it uses to store data and this needs to be converted too.
Is this possible with Veeam Agent?
My first thought was to use VMware P2V but that does not support RAW disks as far as I understand.
Thanks!

Re: Can Veeam Agent for Windows backup a RAW format volume?
Veeam Agent supports the following filesystems:
- Microsoft Windows FAT32/exFAT, NTFS, ReFS file systems

On a raw disk, there is no vss integration. Veeam needs to use the vss component from the operating system to create a volume level backup.
